Summary

While God's love 'makes no sense' it is nonetheless expressed through the lives of Christians who inhabit it.

Love Makes Things Happen Summary

Love Makes Things Happen: An Invitation to Christian Living by Jarred Mercer

We can't truly participate in prayer, or worship, or the sacraments, or the reading of Scripture, and so on, in a way that is divorced from the doctrine of the Trinity, or the Incarnation, or the Resurrection. Following on from its predecessor, Love Makes No Sense each chapter in this book deals with central issues of Christian practice, and presents an introduction to Christian doctrine without losing focus of the lived Christian life. The book sets forth central aspects of Christian living and practice that are the natural expression of those doctrines when they are understood properly as a lived phenomenon.

Love Makes Things Happen Reviews

Amen! A book that breathes life into theology. A beautiful invitation to situate lived Christianity within the study of God; a coming together of prayerful worship with discipleship in daily life. -- Stephen Cottrell
Deeply grounded in Scripture, tradition and reason, Love Makes Things Happen explores the Christian understanding of love as the way of life and invites the reader to discover and live out the dynamic, life-changing love of God in Jesus through prayer, sacramental celebration, evangelism, justice and hospitality and public faith. -- Allen Shin
